Baratza Maestro - Additional Information
German made conical burrs
The Maestro uses the same 40 mm conical burrs it has always used. Conical
burr grinders are exceptional at producing consistent grinds from very fine
to coarse.
Grind Coffee for Any Brewing Method
There are many coffee grinders on the market. However, few have the ability
to grind fine enough for a professional espresso machine and coarse enough for
a press pot. The upgraded Maestro has 40 steps of adjustment, up from
18 steps. Choose the perfect setting by turning the bean hopper to the
desired position.
Innovative calibration
Commercial grinders have a calibration system to ensure that the grinder will
grind fine enough for espresso and has the range to grind coarse enough for
a press pot. Now this feature is available in a grinder designed for home
use. The grinders are calibrated when they are manufactured to ensure
an accurate range of grind. If necessary the grinders can be user calibrated.
DC Motor
A 240 watt DC motor is replacing the current AC motor. The DC motor is
twice as powerful as the current motor and turns slowly resulting in cool, quiet
operation and permits long grinding duty-cycles. The circuitry is equipped
with an automatically resetting, thermal cutoff switch.
Special Gear Reduction
The Maestro uses a combination of gear and electronic speed reducers to slow
the spinning of the burr to 450 RPM. This slow speed reduces heat, noise,
and static generation in the grinder. It also ensures that the beans feed smoothly
into the burrs.
On/Off Switch
The Maestro is equipped with a uniquely designed On/Off switch. You may
rotate the switch clockwise or counter clockwise from any position without damaging
it.
Service & Support
One year warranty. If your grinder has a problem we will see if we can
resolve it over the website or phone or will promptly send a replacement grinder
and a return tag for your old one.
